I notice them all the time, it's a really nice sight to see.
When I tell my skype friend about them he just ignores it, makes me feel little bummed. Lol wish I knew more people that appreciate these little things in game. They always manage to make me smile amidst all the hustle of progression. :) -
10-03-2015, 12:06 AMmicropanther7Yeah I've seen it a couple of times, in Middle La Noscea, and once in Lower La Noscea that went into the ocean, when I was fishing, was lovely to see. Brings the world more alive for me :) I regret not taking screenshots as well :/Quote:

Yep, I see shooting stars a lot. If you go to Coerthas Western Highlands during clear weather you can sometimes see the Northern Lights. You can also see rainbows during transitions between rainy and sunny weather in a lot of places.

I see them all the time when looking north in the Hinterlands in clear and fair weather. I suspect that they are always there at certain times, but just very easy to miss when you can not see the full skybox.

I see them in CWH alot when I go get my Nodes ^^ Very nice to see little things like that. Also saw a rainbow in Idyllshire about 2 weeks ago I think. Was really neat!

Wow! I've never noticed either the Northern Lights or the shooting stars before but I'll be sure to be on the lookout now though. A lot of times if I'm not in a hurry to get somewhere I'll auto-walk and toggle the UI so I can see the full breadth of the environment. The art and designs in this game are quite lovely.

Hah. Found a screenshot where I caught a random shooting star.
It's under the floating island in the upper right. :3
Yep, on clear nights I frequently go to CWH just so I can see if they make an appearance. :DQuote:

Has anyone noticed the stars in the night sky in 3.0 areas are 3 groups of different colors?
-
10-03-2015, 07:22 AMUltimatecaliburI believe those are the constellations. The Red group should be the Balance, Green should be the Bole, Yellow the Spire and The Arrow, Ewer and Spear are all different shades of blue.Quote:

Sort of related...
In my opinion, FFXIV has the most beautiful night sky in a MMORPG I have ever seen. It is gorgeous! In addition, it is awesome things like the Milky Way, the Moon, shooting stars, and northern lights are in the game. This desire to create a beautiful environment, even if it has no impact on gameplay, is one of the biggest reasons I love FFXIV.
Now, if you all excuse me, I'm going to take some screenshots and see if I can connect the dots to make out the constellations. :) -

the starry sky shifts overtime in a pattern like it would irl.

Yeppers! It's really cool when the moon is in the west because you can see the shadows on the ground move as the moon and stars move too. It's rather trippy to watch.

My eyes feel soothe when seeing clear night sky on Mist beach.

I like that the birds in the sky have shadows so when they fly by you can see their shadow. There is a cave someplace in CWH that looks like it has little frozen fairies in it. I forget the exact location, it some where near the north start to the south. its a small care when you go in you see a fozen pool of water and in the water look like 1.0 sprites jusr smaller frozen in it. Pretty cool sight.

I always do /pray to make a wish when I see a shooting star in game.
The night sky is really pretty when you really look at it. -

Sadly, and just like life out here, screenshots never show how pretty the night sky really looks. Night in the Sagolii Desert... oh my...

I see them all the time but then my spot is a nice high in the sky spot in the churning mists and I have a very wide view of the sky.
